Various members of the collective, The Weird, including Zipper, Spray, Look, HrvB, Nychos and Cone, portrayed what a “street art tour” could possibly look at. We have never been on one, but apparently they do go down and people are shelling out bucks for guidance to the “hot spots.”

Spanish artist, Hyuro, completed another wall for the Bien Urbain festival, which is currently taking place in Besancon, France. The artist painted a lengthy cityscape resting on a rug. A character is seen leaning against a rug that looks as if it is about to get rolled up.

Outdoor works getting completed, indoor halls gettin the final touches, and Nuart is almost ready for a full show opening. The street pieces were coming out nice this year, with a few large murals and some great intervention projects going up around Stavanger, Norway.

A bunch of street art festivals are going off in the world right now, Johannesburg, Italy, and Norway, and we just got a series of shots from the opening of FAME Festival in Grottaglie, Italy. Vhils, Ericailcane, Interesni Kazki, Lucy McLauchlan, and others all had work in the opening show to coincide with the street works across the town.

It is getting busy. Day two was an active one here in Stavanger, where Juxtapoz could walk around the town to catch numerous murals and street pieces taking shape and form. Ron English, How Nosm, Niels Shoe Muelman, and Eine had outdoor murals in progress, while Sickboy, Saber, Aakash Nihalani, Jordan Seiler and others worked out their indoor beer hall installations.

Often when traveling to unknown lands, in this case Johannesburg, one can create certain expectations in their head and discover the exact opposite. After a few days running around, are initial skepticism of Joburg has been revoked and anything but negative. Aside from countless memorable adventures from our hospitable hosts and curators of the event, /ANDPEOPLE, we have witnessed two massive murals by ESPO and ROA come to completion.

May 2012 cover artist, Steve "ESPO" Powers (and December 2007 for that matter, as well as in Johannesburg with Jux at the moment) just had his film, A Love Letter For You, released on iTunes. Directed by Juxtapoz contributing editor, Joey Garfield, the film is a narrative based around Powers as he returns to his hometown of Philadelphia to paint on 50 rooftops along the market train line.
